Liu Zheng took his cavalry and waited in Changsha City for two days.

When his large army slowly arrived in Changsha City from Shaoyang City, there was no trace of Sun Jian.

Looking at Changsha County, which was still full of people, Liu Zheng's eyes were slightly cold.

Originally, his plan was to kill Sun Jian.

But Sun Jian is still a little cunning, and after the defeat, he didn't flee back to Changsha and went to other places, and Liu Zheng was right to think about it carefully afterwards.

Knowing that Huang Gai couldn't stop Liu Zheng's people, Liu Zheng's men and horses would continue to pursue when the time came, and if they pursued along this road, it would inevitably be Changsha County.

If he were Sun Jian, Liu Zheng would definitely not choose to return to Changsha County at this time.

"Lord, it's been two days, and I haven't seen Sun Jian, I don't think that guy will come."

"Alas, I finally underestimated Sun Jian, after all, it is the famous Jiangdong Tiger, I didn't kill him this time, and the next time I see him, it will be even more difficult."

Liu Zheng finally gave up, did not chase and kill Sun Jian, and Cai Mao was not easy to explain, but in order to give Cai Mao an explanation, he had to take down this Changsha City.

"Lord, now that our army has gathered, do you want to take down this city?"

"Fight, of course we have to fight, otherwise what is our army doing here?"

"Order, immediately let Guo Shi's men and horses send to charge, let Gan Ning and Zhou Chao be responsible for attacking the city and take this Changsha City."

Liu Zheng rested here for two days, and in the past two days, he had already explored the situation of this Changsha City, and there were only more than 1,000 troops stationed there, and these more than 1,000 people were only recruited by Xin.

The rest of the men and horses had been dispatched to Shaoyang City by Sun Jian a few days ago. Otherwise, how could Sun Jian, who had suffered successive defeats, gather more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in a short period of time.

Sun Jian's recruitment is not the same as Guo Shi's people, just a man, after all, Sun Jian is a soldier of the imperial court, and there are still some conditions for the selection of soldiers.

Now the available talents in Changsha County have basically been transferred away by Sun Jian, and the rest are either just joined, or they are old, weak and disabled, and they don't have much combat effectiveness.

Liu Zheng did not intend to personally participate in such a fight.

After handing it over to Gan Ning, Zhou Chao and others to exercise their abilities, they didn't pay too much attention to it.

Two hours later, the gate of Changsha County was already open, and Liu Zheng led his men and horses into Changsha City.

This siege battle did not even start, and the more than 1,000 defenders in the city surrendered directly.

The defenders of 1,000 people, facing Liu Zheng and Guo Shi's two divisions of men and horses, a large army of nearly 40,000 people, have no possibility of resistance at all.

Gan Ning and Zhou Chao and others, just let the soldiers and horses swing outside Changsha City, those defenders have already been frightened, the two sides confronted each other, Gan Ning promised not to kill the surrendered army, the defenders in the city led the last few men and horses, surrendered.

The gates were easily struck.

Changsha City, this period of time can be regarded as a long time of war, first defeated by Guo Shi's men, and then recaptured by Sun Jian's people, and now occupied by Liu Zheng again.

Although several battles did little damage to the buildings and residents in the city, they still had a great impact on the prosperity of Changsha.

But now, Changsha's economy has declined a lot, and there is no longer the initial prosperity.

In the city, Liu Zheng gathered all his men and horses, and Guo Shi's people came together.

"Liu Zhengqu Shuai, it's too powerful, I finally saw your awesomeness, no wonder there are rumors outside, you can break the Tiger Prison Pass and Luoyang City with just a few thousand people, I thought it was a rumor before, but now I finally believe it."

As soon as Guo Shi saw Liu Zheng, he immediately pretended to be surprised, and complimented Liu Zheng.

"It's a small meaning, just a Sun Jian, it's just a defeated general under my men, when I only had 2,000 soldiers and horses in Runan, I injured them, and now I have 20,000 horses, I will be afraid that he will not succeed."

"It's just that I didn't kill that Sun Jian this time, it's a pity that I let him run away, and there will be endless troubles."

Liu Zheng glanced at Guo Shi with regret.

Guo Shi immediately waved his hand.

"Hey, Liu Zhengqu Shuai, you think too highly of that Sun Jian, this time his troops were all killed by us, even if he let him run, what can he do, he has no people, no matter how powerful he is, he can't make any big waves. Only now that we occupy Changsha County, can we take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill Cai Mao's tens of thousands of people in one fell swoop? ”

At this time, Guo Shi was even more excited because he returned to Changsha, thinking of using Liu Zheng's strength to reconquer the four counties of Jingnan in one fell swoop.

As long as he captures the four counties of Jingnan, then he can gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou.

"Capture the four counties of Jingnan and attack Cai Mao? This matter is temporarily suspended, although we won the battle with Sun Jian, but in Shaoyang forced the siege of the city, we also lost a lot of soldiers and horses, especially my cavalry, and now there are only 1,000 people left. ”

Thinking of his cavalry, when he was chasing Sun Jian, he lost more than half, and Liu Zheng's heart was a pain in his heart.

His cavalry is the most elite unit under his command, although when he sent cavalry to attack and chase Sun Jian, Liu Zheng had already thought of the possibility of damage, but when the cavalry was really lost by more than half, he still couldn't help but be sad.

At the beginning of the retreat from Luoyang, the cavalry under Liu Zheng once had 4,000 people, but after this period of continuous expeditions, the number of horses continued to decrease, so that his cavalry battalion is now less and less.

There are only a thousand men left, and if there are any less, I am afraid that there will be no need to even form cavalry.

Moreover, in the siege battle, Liu Zheng asked Gan Ning and Xu Huang's people, as the main force, to attack at the main city gate, and the troops of both of them suffered more or less losses.

At least in this battle, Liu Zheng lost more than 5,000 people.

Of the 20,000 soldiers and horses brought from Jiaozhou, there are only 15,000 left.

And Guo Shi's 20,000 people, because he is responsible for attacking the city wall, has no loss, and naturally has the ability to confront Cai Mao.

Liu Zheng's need to recuperate for a while is the main reason, and at the same time, he and Cai Mao themselves have an agreement that it is impossible to take the initiative to attack Cai Mao, which is also the reason why Liu Zheng rejected Guo Shi.
